Garmin GRID™ 20 - Horizontal — Product description
Master Your Vessel from Anywhere Onboard
Imagine cruising through choppy waters or enjoying a sunset voyage without being glued to the helm station. The Garmin GRID 20 horizontal remote changes that reality, giving skippers and crew seamless command over their Garmin marine setup. Whether you're tweaking radar settings, switching between chartplotter screens, or engaging the autopilot, this compact controller keeps everything at your fingertips—or armrest. Designed for real-world boating demands, it thrives in harsh marine environments, ensuring reliable performance when you need it most.
Boat owners rave about how it frees them up to focus on navigation and safety rather than fumbling with screens. Mount it horizontally on your console, integrate it into the captain's chair, or go wireless for ultimate flexibility. No more straining to reach controls during critical moments.
Precision Control with Intuitive Design
At the heart of the GRID 20 lies a versatile 360-degree joystick that doubles as a rotary knob and push-to-select button. This all-in-one input makes scrolling through menus, zooming charts, and fine-tuning waypoints feel effortless—even with gloves on or in heavy spray. Pair it with dedicated hard keys for rapid actions:
- Left and right screen switching for multi-display helms
- Autopilot standby and engage for quick maneuvers
- SOS key for emergency access
- Four customizable favorite keys to snap back to your go-to setups, like fishing modes or night navigation profiles
Built tough with fully gasketed, high-impact plastic, it shrugs off saltwater, UV exposure, and impacts. The IPX7 waterproof rating means submersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes won't faze it, perfect for open cockpits or rainy passages.
Seamless Integration into Your Garmin Ecosystem
This remote syncs effortlessly with key Garmin marine gear, including GHC 50 autopilot instruments, GMR Fantom 18x/24x dome radars, and GPSMAP chartplotters. It's like extending your helm's brain to wherever you roam onboard. Choose wired NMEA 2000 connectivity for rock-solid reliability or wireless for clutter-free installs. Horizontal orientation suits sleek dash panels, while the slim profile (just 5.6 x 2.2 x 2.7 inches) slips neatly between screens or into furniture.
Pro tip for custom builds: Pair multiple GRID units across stations for shared control, ideal for larger yachts or multi-station setups. Compass-safe up to 114 mm, it won't interfere with your heading sensors.
